Diabetic nephropathy is one of the microvascular complications in type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DM). Diagnosis of diabeticnephropathy is based on any history of DM, a decrease in Glomerular Estimation Filtrate Rate (eGFR) using the CKD-Epiformula, and albuminuria. The role of serum uric acid level in diabetic nephropathy remains an ongoing debate. Serum uricacid levels may be the cause or the result of diabetic nephropathy. This study aimed to analyze serum uric acid levels inpatients with and without diabetic nephropathy and determine its correlation with diabetic nephropathy. This study wasperformed at Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Hospital, Makassar, by taking the data from the medical record of type 2 DMpatients from January to April 2018. Fifty-nine patients with diabetic nephropathy and 150 patients without diabeticnephropathy participated in this study. An independent T-test and Pearson's correlation test were used for statisticalanalysis. There was a significant difference in uric acid level between patients with and without diabetic nephropathy(9.57±3.42 mg/dL vs. 6.41±2.86 mg/dL, p < 0.001). There was significant correlation between uric acid serum levels with urea(p < 0.001, r=0.585), creatinine (p<0.001, r=0.413) and eGFR (p < 0.001, r=-0.525) in patients with diabetic nephropathy. Uricacid levels in patients with diabetic nephropathy were higher than patients without diabetic nephropathy. Higher levels ofurea and the serum creatinine led to higher levels of serum uric acid. Contrastingly, a lower eGFR rate led to higher levels ofuric acid.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is the most important risk factor associated with two to four fold increased incidence of coronary artery disease. The major risk factors for CAD are hypercholesterolemia, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and cigarette smoking Objectives: To study the level of serum uric acid in type 2 diabetes mellitus and the correlation between elevated serum uric acid level and the component of metabolic syndrome like obesity, hypertension, dyslipidemia.Methods: The study was done as descriptive analytical study among the diabetic patients in a tertiary care setting during the period January 2018 to February 2019. The inclusion and exclusion criteria were clearly defined and the study participants were recruited for the study after getting the informed consent. The socio demographic profile, clinical and laboratory data were collected from the blood sample obtained from the patients with the standardized procedures. Data was entered in Microsoft excel spread sheet and analyzed statistically using SPSS statistical software. Student ‘t’ test and Chi-square test values were applied for significance.Results: Serum uric acid in the study population and control varied from 3.0 to 8.1 and 2.7 to 5.5 mg/dl respectively. The mean and standard deviation of uric acid among cases was 5.08±1.42 while in control it was 3.55±0.62 respectively. The serum uric acid level of diabetics was very much elevated compare with controls and it was highly significant. Significant correlation was noticed between serum uric acid and BMI as well as WHR. Elevated uric acid levels were significantly noticed among those with hypertension, dyslipidemia, coronary artery disease and chronicity of the diabetes.Conclusions: Uric acid was significantly elevated in diabetic population and the mean value of serum uric acid level was higher in longer duration of diabetes, hypertension, dyslipidemia, central obesity which are the components of metabolic syndrome.

Background: Few studies have assessed the relation of uric acid level with the severity of coronary  artery disease (CAD). This study investigated the association between high uric acid levels with the  presence and severity of CAD.Materials and Methods: This study was designed as an observational cohort study. The study was  composed of 180 patients admitted at our institution due to symptoms related to CAD. Patients  having angiographic evidence of stenosis in coronary artery were as case group and without stenosis  control group. Patients with high uric acid (hyperuricemia) were defined as serum uric acid  concentration ?7.0mg/dl or ?420 ?mol/L in men and ?6mg/dl or ?360 ? mol/L in women. The  presence of CAD has been defined as the Gensini score being ?1.  Results: There was a statistically significant difference between the mean uric acid levels of patients  with and without CAD (358.23±71.11 ?mol/l vs251.32±54.92 ?mol/l respectively, p<0.001). There  was a statistically significant difference between ejection fraction of patients with and without CAD  (54.50±9.25 vs. 63.16±6.56 respectively, p?0.001). Spearman correlation analysis demonstrated a  positive correlation between the serum uric acid level and the severity of CAD (p=?0.001, r=0.39).  When patients were classified into four groups according to their Gensini score, mean serum uric  acid level was found to be significantly increased across the tertiles, and a statistically significant  difference was detected between the tertiles (p= ?0.001).  Conclusion: In conclusion, a significant association has been found between serum uric acid level  and the presence and severity of CAD. In addition to the evaluation of conventional risk factors in  daily clinical practice, the measurement of uric acid level might provide significant prognostic  benefits in terms of global cardiovascular risk and management of the patients.

BACKGROUND:Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. AIM:To evaluate the serum uric acid level in patients with type 2 Diabetes mellitus. MATERIALS AND METHODS:It was a prospective observational study conducted on 100 patients attending Medicine Department of Jhalawar Medical College, Jhalawar, Rajasthan. The study was done to assess the uric acid status in patients with diabetes mellitus and to find out its association with Age, Gender, Body Mass Index (BMI), Waist Hip Ratio (WHR), Dyslipidemia and Hypertension. Relevant history, vitals, clinical examination and laboratory investigations were done and recorded. RESULTS:This study evaluated the level of serum uric acid in Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and confirmed there significantly high prevalence of hyperuricemia among type 2 diabetes subjects and increased association with increasing age, BMI, WHR, Dyslipidemia, Hypertension and female sex. CONCLUSION: Patients with Poor metabolic control and longer duration of diabetes were more susceptible to develop various complications including hyperuricemia. Early diagnosis and control of Diabetes Mellitus and its complications is indicated and potential therapeutic approaches (therapeutic life style changes and pharmacotherapy) should be initiated.

Significant Difference

Hyperuricemia is associated with higher mortality in patients suffering from hypertension, coronary heart disease, cerebrovascular events, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, gout and renal stone formation and it is more in individuals with diabetes. The prevalence of hyperuricemia is high in T2DM. The aim of the present study was to assess the relationship between hyperuricemia and blood pressure in T2DM subjects and thus to help the clinician for early diagnosis, treatment and to prevent further complications. Total 350 study subjects were enrolled for this study; among them 203 were T2DM with normal level of serum uric acid level and 147 were T2DM with high serum uric acid level. It was observed that systolic blood pressure was significantly higher (134.5±9.6 mm of Hg) in T2DM with hyperuricemia (p<0.001) than T2DM with normal serum uric acid level (123.3±10.9 mm of Hg). On the other hand diastolic blood pressure was significantly higher (87.1±5.9 mm of Hg) in T2DM with hyperuricemia (p<0.001) than T2DM with normal serum uric acid level (79.6±8.3 mm of Hg). Age (years) showed no significant difference between T2DM with serum uric acid<7 mg/dl and T2DM with serum uric acid>7 mg/dl (p<0.05). In our study it was revealed that males were in greater risk of developing hyperuricemia. BMI was significantly (p<0.001) greater in T2DM subjects who had normal serum uric acid level (27.9±3.8) than with those who had serum uric acid>7 mg/dl (24.4±3.83). No significant differences were found in FBS, blood sugar 2 hours after breakfast, HbA1C, serum creatinine and blood urea between groups.Bangladesh J Med Biochem 2016; 9(2): 49-53
